The Pop Trolls are seen to be the most adapted at using their hair. An example of such usage involves them swinging faster through the trees than a Bergen can walk. They appear to be the Tribe most reliant on their hair; Branch states in Troll 2 Troll that a Troll's which at the time would have just referred to their Tribe hair is their best natural defense, and they need to move it freely at a moment's notice.
Trolls like King Peppy are physically strong enough to carry a number of other Trolls. According to King Quincy and Queen Essence 's bios, when the Pop Trolls had the Strings , they had the ability to convert any kind of music into generic Pop via use of medleys, autotuning and remixing. This resulted in the other Tribes being unable to play and enjoy their music, and making it a lot more bland than it was having removed anything special from their music.
The intelligence of the Tribe varies among members, but most appear to be average in such terms. However, their preference to always "be happy" has led to severe underestimations from some of its members. Part of the issue in Trolls was that after 20 years of freedom and happiness away from the Bergens, Poppy had organized their year celebration with no consideration of any Bergen seeing their lights and sound show.
Yet at the same time, no other Pop Troll sided against the party; in fact, they all supported it and ridiculed Branch for being against it, labeling him a "party pooper" in the process. For Most Pop Trolls, it's a not a question of if something is intellectual stimulating or not to them; they just prefer to see the "fun" side of things over the dull side, making Branch the oddball of their Tribe for liking such things. Ignorance remains the biggest issue that members of this Tribe have, including when it comes to dealing with other Trolls, and this trait is displayed by even the smartest members.
Their positivity, generosity and trust is easily exploited and can be a severe weakness at times. The Pop Trolls appear to be much more "average" in comparison to the other Tribes, which often have more unique tribal traits. As such, the Pop Trolls tend to stand out in their behavior more than their abilities as a Tribe. The Pop Trolls' lives are currently carefree. In the past, the Pop Trolls had been villains, although they had hidden what they had done.
Compared to their ancestors, the modern Pop Trolls are nothing alike. They're among the friendlier Troll Tribes overall. Their ruler Queen Poppy generally promotes happiness, and tries to make effort to see the best in everyone. A typical Pop Troll is extremely happy, strives happiness and seeks fun above all things. They're prone to absolute panic when things go wrong, often overreacting in a comical way; the sole exceptions are their leaders alongside those close to them like friends , who usually manage to remain level-headedness, and Branch due to this past experiences.
The Pop Trolls collectively aren't stupid, but often display certain amounts of ignorance and are blissfully unaware of the greater scope of their world. Until Trolls World Tour , they thought of themselves as "Trolls", and weren't aware of there being other Tribes, even that they themselves were "Pop Trolls". While some of this may be contributed to the events with the Bergens and their confinement in Bergen Town , it also extends to things like the Party Crashers.
It's not that they don't mistrust or are cautious about others, it's that they're willing to try and come to a common ground, which separates them as a Tribe. While the other Tribes tend to use specific terminologies related to their themes, such the Techno Trolls making use of puns by their name, the Classical Trolls speaking with music theory terms and the Rock Trolls making Rock-based puns, the typical Pop Troll doesn't do any such thing.
The only common way speech pattern they often use is simply a habit of using sweets and other treat-based analogies when looking for examples to talk about. One such example is the use of the "cupcake metaphor" in " TrollsTopia Part 2 ", which was used as a metaphoric meaning: they had planned to give the ambassadors from the other Tribes a taste of something good so they'd want more of that good thing.
Alternatively, anything fun-sounding like "twisty slides", which Branch used in " Wormhole " is also used in such metaphors and other speech analogies. The Pop Trolls have a King or Queen who is in charge of leading their people. The current King or Queen steps down at some point, and appoints their heir to the throne when they feel that they're ready. The leader has the most power and looks out for the general population, who generally respects them.
Aside from this, their leader doesn't really stand out from other Trolls in the population, and others will speak out against their leader whenever they disagree with them.
Pop Trolls tend to be willing to befriend anyone such as non Pop-Trolls, and spend much of their social lives with their best friends. Individuals who are negative rather than positive can be seen as outcasts or "party poopers", and grey-colored Trolls aren't favored over the more vividly coloration of other Trolls. This was exampled by Branch and Creek in Trolls , although the Pop Trolls' attitude to Branch has changed since the events of the film and they generally are more open to negativity.
The Pop Trolls generally enjoy making friends and can often try to make many friends quickly, in the "Tourist Map" video from the Trolls World Tour movie extras, they are identified as the friendliest of the Tribes. However, as of Trolls World Tour this has met with some issues. The Pop Trolls are wary of the other Tribes at first, as exampled by Peppy's words "don't dance like us and don't sing like us" when speaking of them.
Cooper was accepted by them because while they acknowledged he was a Troll, they didn't know much else about their species as a whole. On the other hand, when dealing with the other Tribes in general, Poppy's adventures in Trolls World Tour don't run smoothly, and the Pop Trolls show quite a bit of naivety towards how other Trolls are.
After the events of Trolls World Tour , Poppy, their leader, now sees harmony as embracing difference among her people and learning to live alongside others, and opened TrollsTopia hoping to involve the situation. For this reason, the Pop Trolls seem a lot more tolerable towards differences than Tribes like the Rock Trolls did, mostly because of how varied they themselves can be. This is evidenced even by simple differences such as Biggie 's large size and Legsly 's height-changing appearance, and their willingness to befriend non-Troll creatures different to them, such as the Bergens.
But learning to be friends with the Tribes proved to not be easy, and everyone didn't click instantly at first. Pop Trolls' typical tactics when threatened is to run and hide, which has kept them safe for a long time and is the primary solution that both Peppy and Branch rely on. Oddly during Trolls World Tour , this proved to be the only effective method of avoiding capture by the Rock Trolls , as it led to members of The Snack Pack escaping them.
One of their best tactics they often apply is simply try to befriend their enemies, thus minimizing the chances of them rising up against them in the long term. Though their present stance isn't a reflection of their past, as noted by their history with the Strings , and they have been on the offense instead of the receiving end, being once the best to take advantage of the other Troll Tribes; in other words, these Trolls were once a fearsome Tribe to contend with.
The Pop Trolls have a holiday for every day of the year, meaning they're constantly having one party or another. For the Pop Trolls, having a " Blank Day " is horrifying. Even though, the presence of a Blank Day is a chance for a new holiday to be created, as chosen by their leader.
The process of Troll holiday selection is simple: a Troll proposes a holiday and if lucky, their leader chooses it over all others. Their leader can also just establish a new holiday willingly without proposals. As mentioned in " Funsgiving ", King Peppy created a holiday of himself when he started to get old. In Trolls Holiday , the sheer number of holidays they have is addressed, and it becomes apparent that the Trolls celebrate just about anything and everything, much to the annoyance of the Bergens, who end up remarking their holidays "sucked" and are very un-Bergen-like.
Even if the number of holidays isn't enough, according to Sky Toronto in " The Giver ", there are 18 parties, 12 soirees and at least 5 shindigs on an average Troll night. In fact, it's normal for every Troll to host parties, and the only two to avoid it were DJ Suki and Branch.
DJ avoided hosting parties because she wasn't good at it, as shown in " Party Crash Course ", where they tended to end in disaster. Branch meanwhile had basically been held back socially by his inability to feel happiness for over 20 years, causing him to avoid partying altogether.
Poppy saw it as an achievement when he finally hosted his own party in " Bye Bye Bunker " for the very first time, as it meant he was finally a normal Troll. When Pop Trolls play certain party games, they become victim to that game, though details are yet unknown as to why.
Though these seem like simple games the Pop Trolls play, they also have the ability to impact creatures and Trolls of other Tribes, which bring the question on if these are truly games at all. Trolls don't seem to be able to break out of these games at all once they're victims to them.
The Pop Trolls' culture is limited but extremely varied, since its membership diversifies in many directions. As mentioned in the "Technology" section, the Pop Trolls often focus on making their homes out of hair and other recyclable things. Troll "Pods" are found in the trees and Pop Trolls mostly enjoy a simplistic home design; everything in a pod is all that a Troll owns.
They are made to look like tree ornaments and together make a tree look decorative. Other than this, Pop Trolls tend to build much more simpler structures then some other Tribes; stages are often just made of wood with cloth curtains, but seating is simple chairs. It is often colorful and uses a wide variety of rainbow colors. Their structures are almost all open-air.
They enjoy singing and dancing like any other Troll Tribe. Their music is centered around " Pop Music " and it's where they get their name from. Pop Trolls love music with a hum-able hook, enough beat and melody, catchy tunes that get into your head and make you want to snap your fingers, tap your toes, and move your butt.
Their music covers EDM, hip hop and rap, and generally focuses on the theme of happiness and fun. The Techno Trolls music otherwise shares a lot of common themes with the Pop Trolls. However, Pop Trolls music is regarded as almost the complete opposite of the Rock Trolls favored style. For these Trolls, life is a giant party, and they're almost always singing, dancing or hugging; the sole exception was Branch until the events of Trolls.
Pop Troll dancing is quite varied with a lot of energy and different varied moves, and is less distinct than what other Tribes tend to be.
They generally form together to do complimenting movements with each other that involve a lot of movement patterns and use of their entire body. The Pop Trolls' music wasn't well liked by other Troll Tribes and subcultures, having strong opinions of it. Queen Barb believed it's not real music; at her victory concert, she had called it "the worst of all" of the other genres. She described it as bland, repetitive, with lyrics that had no meaning and that it crawls into one's head like an earworm, with the latter being proven moments later when her father King Thrash begun to sing the Trolls Wanna Have Good Times medley.
Delta Dawn , upon hearing Poppy, Branch and Biggie perform refers it as a "crime against music", and states that she has to wash what they call music out of her ears. Chaz calls it pointless and cheesy. King Quincy and Queen Essence didn't wish to have anything to do with the Pop Trolls when offered to combine their music of Funk with Pop against Barb. In their official bios, it's mentioned that Pop tried to make their music bland and autotuned in an attempt to de-funk their music, which led to the Funk Trolls fleeing for fear of their music to the furthest corner of Troll Kingdom.
Unlike his brother Prince D who is half-Hip hop, Cooper is half-Pop, despite his heritage being primarily that of a Funk Troll ; the result is that he also covers music related to the Pop genre. He's the only known half-Pop Troll, with his fondness for Pop music originating from him being raised by the Pop Tribe.
The Pop Trolls focus on technology that can be easily recycled, such as why their pods are made of their own hair and therefore biodegradable. However, throughout the franchise, they're shown to have varying technological advancements, even though they generally don't display things that use too much modern technology. It's clear that the technological level of their Tribe is adjusted to suit the story when needed for each part of the franchise. In the base core of the franchise, it's quite basic, but in some parts, it can be more advanced.
For example, there's Sky Toronto 's party shop, a factory that contrasts the rest of the technology displayed by the Pop Trolls. Another example is with Branch's bunker. It's shown to be mostly engineering skills involving a limited technology in Trolls , and the focus of the introductory short "Inside the Bunker" shows no technology beyond the shaft at all. Individuals like Creek do not invest time in growing crops and will pick from whatever plant is available. Smidge is noted as the only Troll capable of breaking into Stoutberries for their juice physically.
In Troll Rangers and other episodes it was shown that they can make use of wild flora for party supplies. They make use of creatures at times in place of things like vehicles. The Pop Trolls love scrapbooking. Their scrapbooks form their main means to gather and record information. Trolls , for example begins with Poppy recapping the events of the escape from Bergen Town using a scrapbook. Dinkles invite you into the colorful world of Trolls Village for this interactive performance, jam-packed with all the music, glitter, humor and happiness that only the Trolls can create.
Queen Poppy is the ever-positive leader of the Trolls community. Her endless optimism comes with a bit of stubbornness as this determined Queen is not afraid to stand up for her friends and her beliefs. A reforming recluse always prepared for danger, Branch is learning to embrace his inner Troll so his true colors can shine. Biggie is the most soft-spoken Troll in the village and a loyal and proud friend to Poppy.
Guy Diamond is ambitious, cheeky, and just a little bit vain. His musical voice and propensity to shower everything and everyone with glitter make him a great addition to any party. Satin and Chenille are the most fashion-forward members of the Trolls village and help to make it a hip place to live.
Long ago, the ancestors of the 6 Tribes created the Strings , 6 in total. These were based on their respective cultures, of which each was centralized on a particular type of music: Pop, Classical, Rock, Techno, Funk and Country. At some point, the Tribes initially coexisted, until the Pop Trolls' leader stole the entire harp out of pure selfishness, which made the Pop Trolls' population to expand.
After the remaining Troll elders retrieved their respective strings, they became isolated from each other, each going to their own separate corners of the Troll lands and creating their own kingdoms.
Queen Barb invades the other 5 kingdoms to get their Strings and erase all music except Rock. Barb partly succeeds at her plan, but the Strings end up getting destroyed by Poppy before she finalised everything.
With the Strings now gone, the Trolls have finally stopped relying on them and now draw music from themselves. In addition, the isolation of the Tribes ended, and they now live with each other again. Branch with the Bergen King Gristle Jr. The DreamWorks base-design of the " basic Troll design " stands just 6 inches in height, splitting normally between approximately 3 inches of hair and 3 inches of body.
They have hands with 3 fingers plus a thumb on each hand and 4 toes on each foot. An example of a typical Troll is the franchise's main protagionist Queen Poppy and her respective love interest Branch ; though both stand just shy of the 6 inches with Poppy being 5 and a half inches tall and Branch being supposedly shorter then her "by a hair".
There doesn't tend to be much variation among each actual Tribe's separate population, meaning within a population design tends to be similar. However, when comparing different populations, the Tribes have variations on this design. For example, while their bodies can be any color as can their hair the color palette can be Tribe-specific; for example, Rock Trolls generate with grey and muddy colors, Techno Trolls bright neon colors, and Funk Trolls generate with multiple bright, rainbow-colored stripes in their fur.
They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes in terms of body shape. They can vary between bipedal or quadrupedal depending on Tribal origins, though most Trolls are bipedal. A number of them have "good luck gems" where their belly button should be.
There are exceptions that are based on a specific Tribe origin, such as Glitter Trolls who have metallic, glittery texture , The K-Pop Gang who have chrome color-switch skin , Reggaeton Trolls who have soft-felt skin, vinyl-looking and smooth markings , Rock Trolls who have a soft-rock gradient, stone-like skin , and Techno Trolls who have a smooth, textureless skin that looks like plastic.
Most designs of each Troll Tribe are randomly generated by DreamWorks themselves; named characters such as the leaders of each Tribe tend to have more unique designs.
This is most likely to save time and money and it tends to extend to 2D animation as well. Large crowds of Trolls are made possible with the use of random generated Trolls wherein color of hair, body and attire, as well as attire design, are simply swapped.
Only named characters, or characters serving to be a focus of a scene, are given heavy details. The Trolls' sexes aren't easily separated, with the only method of telling a male and a female Troll apart is by looking at a Troll's eyes for long eyelashes, which remains the only consistent sexual dimorphic trait. The design of the eyelashes changes per population, but they normally indicate a female Troll.
Males otherwise are only picked out by their lack of eyelashes. Exceptions are only given to "unique" designed characters such as Keith or Trollzart , who have eyelashes despite being male. In Keith's case, the circumstances for having eyelashes is that DreamWorks reused Poppy's baby model for his character.
Pop, Rock and Country Trolls follow a standard design in which males stand the same height as females, but have larger hands with their fingertips resting lower than the groin area with same-length arms.
They tend to have a slightly bulkier build with wider shoulders and slightly bigger bellies. However, both cases are subtle compared to many other common differences. In other Tribes, these differences aren't displayed; Funk Trolls have the same limbs regardless of gender, and Techno Trolls and Classical Trolls don't have any body shape changes as they're all variations of the same model.
Other indications of sex occur in certain Tribal clothing for example, female Rock Trolls tend to wear fishnet tights. In addition, there are many minor feminine and masculine traits that are chosen by the design team of the franchise for each character.
For example, Poppy being female has a narrower and more rounded face versus Branch, who has a bigger and wider one; this is inconsistent among overall populations, but is likely to help visualize Poppy as a more feminine character and Branch as a more masculine one.
The DreamWorks Twitter account hinted that genetics still impact the Trolls and siblings are often similar designs and colors for this reason. Poppy herself has pink colors on her body scheme likely inherited from her own father, but meanwhile Queen Barb looks nothing like King Thrash. Poppy comments that Cooper looks just like his father King Quincy even though they have very different designs and colorations, so it is implied that Trolls still tend to resemble their parents at least according to each other.
A note is that when it comes to uniquely designed Trolls, they tend to stand out in more ways then just their designs being not a standard one. For example, King Trollex has a different hair design and coloration, but he doesn't just stand out for this reason; overall due to having longer fins he stands taller then the other Techno Trolls.
Many members of The Snack Pack stand out not just in their visual design but their colourations; Creek isn't just picked out because of his unique attire but because of his bright colors, this same rule applies to Satin and Chenille who also have a unique coloration in their hair. Poppy herself is visually made to be distinctly pink even compared to other Trolls that are pink by using a brighter pink then any other on scene, likewise Branch's dull grey colors also make him stand out against all the other brightly colored Pop Trolls.
A note of the people making parts of the Trolls franchise is that from time to time they mess with the visual appearance of the Trolls to create "throwaway" gag ones.
These include Skyscraper and Legsly , with the latter fleshing out into a full character. Not much is known about how the Trolls reproduce as of the available information from the franchise. Though child Trolls of each Tribe do have parents, normally both a male and female Troll, little details are given on the Troll reproduction process that leads to the creation of baby Trolls.
This is mostly because of the fact the Trolls franchise itself is aimed at children. In fact, the only time any Troll genitalia has been on screen, it was censored out; Biggie accidentally exposed himself during the song in Trolls Holiday.
Although, it should be noted that naked Trolls like the Glitter Trolls or Tresillo and his females don't have any genitalia on show, so Biggie's accidental exposure may have been just a gag. The first witnessed birth is from Guy Diamond in Trolls World Tour , who gave birth to Tiny Diamond despite being male; a silver egg shoots out of his hair, and hatches as Tiny slowly descends down to him.
Later, a Country Troll female gives birth to a large, smooth egg with a patchwork pattern on it, and without hair; her own hair simply parted to reveal the egg. Queen Essence held both of her Funk Twin identical eggs in her hair; they had a glossy Funk design on them and strands of dreadlocked hair.
Also, just because a parent has a preference for one genre of music, their offspring won't necessarily inherit it and may be one of the subculture Trolls who specialize in a particular niche between the main genres of music.
Tiny inherited all of Guy's looks, but his style of music is different from his father's, being a Hip hop Troll. These variations of the basic 6 Troll Tribes are natural occurrences that take place over time. Then I emerge from the womb This was later proven false when Cooper ventured to find other Trolls like him; it turned out he was stolen as an egg from his mother Queen Essence 's hair.
One of the largest inconsistencies within the franchise comes from infant Trolls. Most information also focused on young Pop Trolls, and information on other Tribes didn't become available until Trolls World Tour. In addition, a large amount of retcons have occurred across the franchise. The first baby Troll seen in the franchise was Poppy in the opening of Trolls. Poppy only said simple words and repeating phrases such as "Dada" and "No Troll left behind"; she had her own separate baby bio from her adult self.
In material related specifically to "Baby Poppy", it was noted that King Peppy kept Poppy in his hair, which acted as a playpen. It was also shown in Trolls during the escape from Bergen Town, where Peppy kept his daughter safe, that Troll babies do hide in their parents' hair. Another reference is found in one of the Troll comics , where Poppy is babysitting baby Trolls and one goes missing after Branch passes by; it turned out the baby Troll hopped into Branch's hair when the pair weren't looking.
The model for Poppy was also reused for the character of Keith, but recolored green and blue. Young Trolls were shown as well with less overall hair than adults, and were still learning about the world.
Their designs would be used for the basis of many child Trolls during the franchise's Trolls era, with the basic design being also used for some adult models like Harper 's within the movie.
One of the roles that Poppy took as a Troll leader was to teach young Trolls on "how to be a Troll". Trolls: The Beat Goes On! Within the series, inconsistences can be found. In the episode Gem Day , Poppy states that the first hair a Troll gets is cut, but no further references to this were ever made in the Trolls franchise, as most Trolls are born with a full head of hair, and none of them have it cut.
In the episode " Vega Swift ", it's noted that a baby's hair can become out of control, and therefore they need to wear a bonnet to keep it contained, but this isn't shown anywhere else in the series. Keith was aged up from a baby Troll to a young child, and the series generally remained consistent with the movie's depictions. Trolls World Tour saw a retcon to baby Trolls. Tiny also acts much more like an adult Troll than a baby as Poppy did in Trolls.
Young Pop Trolls still used the Trolls -era designs, since the retcon hasn't impacted them by that moment. With the addition of the new Tribes, it also came more variation in baby Troll design. Among the Techno Trolls , a young child Coral Blush can be seen with his parents. In another scene, Delta Dawn orders her niece Clampers Buttonwillow to attack Poppy and her friends; the miniature Troll opens her mouth and reveals a set of rotating teeth that move like a buzzsaw; it is unknown if this was done for comical relief, or if this is unique to Clampers or common among the Tribe.
The only two examples of a Funk Troll baby both share baby Cooper's design. Yet all other young Trolls have similar designs to Pop Troll young. The inconsistency can be put down to late movie design changes that were occurring even after its production. Although a baby Classical Troll was seen, its model was created from readjusting the adult one.
Most merchandise of babies for the Trolls era was based on Poppy's baby design, although later babies were smaller than Poppy. In toys for Gia Grooves and Poppy , it was also noted that baby Trolls hide in other Trolls' hair for playing safely. Hasbro were mostly the ones who commonly depicted baby Trolls, as most other references to baby Trolls were only of baby Poppy. Hasbro merchandise for Trolls World Tour depicts all baby and juvenile Trolls as just smaller versions of adult Trolls.
This leads to a inconsistency within merchandise of baby and young Trolls. Other companies chose to not make any size difference between adults and babies.
This impacted Hasbro's approach to dolls, Hasbro often depicting younger Trolls as oversized dolls rather than in Trolls. While inconsistences have occurred with young Trolls, elders have remained much more consistent throughout the franchise, even among merchandise.
As Trolls grow old, they gain grey streaks in their hair. Many also lose the volume of their hair and get a frizzled hairstyle. Elderly Trolls often show signs of arthritis and other health issues.
There aren't many elderly Trolls shown in the movies, with most Trolls only being of a young adult age such as The Snack Pack. For the Pop Trolls, the absence of elders can be easily explained due to their past issues with the Bergens and the Trollstice event, leaving King Peppy as one of the few elderly Trolls to survive from Bergen Town in the movies.
It's common for elderly royals among the Tribes to hand over their crown when their health renders them unable to perform their royal duties.
